I ended up creating a IFC file. Found out that's what the client requested. I never made the ICM. Also I was never able to create it. I tried with no success.

Richard, were you able to get an icm.dgn file to appear when you published an i-model? I am only able to get i.dgn files when publishing i-model and TBC obviously isn't able to load those.

When an i-model is "published" with OpenRoads, three different types offiles are generated:

i.dgn - desktop application file. Can be attached as a reference file toMicroStation orMX drawings.
.imodel - mobile application file. Used by software for mobile devicessuch as BentleyNavigator.
.icm.dgn - civil model interoperability file. Can be used within civilproducts and hasintelligence. Trimble Business Center (TBC) can read the ICM file andunderstands some of the civil element information. TBC users can turnfeatures on & off or obtain station/offset information from elementson the drawing.

Then you can deliver the icm file to your client if that is the only file requested.

While this discussion is four years old, it says that ORD doesn't have ICM capability. I don't know anything about that, but there may be others here who can be of assistance.

If this is time-sensitive, you may be better off filing a Service Ticket with Bentley Support. We are all just regular users, and may not be very active over the next holiday week or so.
